So, Morgan has never shown much interest in picking out her own clothes or really caring at all what she wore until recently. She has been getting up before Michael and I and getting dressed in her room, resulting in some CRAZY outfits!!! Not crazy as in her underpants end up on her head or anything, but just the craziest mix of colors and patterns and oh so many layers, and she fells GORGEOUS. I mean she walks around giggling to herself and dancing around the halls. If you tell her she looks pretty, she gets the proudest look on her face and curtsies as she says "thank you." It is so sweet. The thing is, I really didn't want to take her out looking like that, so the first couple of times I changed her into one of her new cute outfits we got for Christmas and she got SO upset. Finally, on new years day, she came up with this outfit, complete with a halloween headband and a skirt that went to my sister's old dance costume.
I did not have the heart to tell her to change again, she was just so happy and you could tell she felt like a million bucks. So off to our neighbor's new year's party we went, crazy outfit and all! Of course everyone knew what was going on, and they all smiled and told her she looked beautiful, which made her even happier. Now, I don't have much of a fashion sense these days, so I'm not going to coach her in her artistic ideas on clothes, but I'm hoping to at least get the lesson of matching clothes across. My new plan is to search for the perfect outfit every night, together, before she goes to bed. So that she will wake up in the morning and feel proud that she picked out a beautiful outfit, that matches...with a little help from Mommy.
